Furnishing a Holiday Let With a Homely Touch | LOFT
Focus on comfort
Your property will become the temporary home of any guest who comes to stay, so creating an inviting and comfortable setting should be at the top of your priorities list.
After a long day seeing the sights and having fun, your guests will want to relax. Ensuring you have soft, cushy furniture is a great way to help your guests chill out and rest.
Fortunately, holiday let furniture specifically designed for the rental market makes this a breeze.
To furnish your holiday let with a homely touch, think about who your property will appeal to. Families and large groups of friends are more likely to appreciate three-seater sofas as it gives them more room, but if your property is closer to a romantic getaway, a two-seater would be ideal for couples.
Guests will also long for a great night’s sleep after burning all their energy, so including quality mattresses is a must. It’s well known that sleeping soundly can improve wellbeing, so it stands to reason that the better rested your guests are, the better their mood will be.
This will help when they look back fondly on their stay in your property. If they rest well every night, it can lead to positive reviews, leading to even more bookings.
Remember the essentials
The essentials are the key items that are easy to overlook, but they’re needed for furnishing a holiday let with a homely touch.
For example, your guests might prefer to do their own cooking, as eating out every night can be expensive and the money they save could go towards day trips instead. This is why you need a complete kitchen package, so nothing gets forgotten, such as the cutlery, cutting board or the all-important corkscrew for that much-needed glass of red wine.
Another room that always benefits from a little extra sparkle is the bathroom. Guests want to know the bathroom has been cared for and is thoroughly clean, so soft towels and stylish, practical ceramics go down very well.
While your guests might not have cleaning on their minds, it’s important to remember accidents happen. Glasses can break, dirt can end up on the carpet and clothes need to be washed and ironed. Take a look at our cleaning pack that gives guests everything they need to keep your property neat and tidy.
Have fun with the accessories
Furnishing a holiday let with a homely touch can’t be done if you forget to include the little extra items that add a unique sense of style to a property. Think about the small things you have at home that bring out your property’s character, and try to recreate that feeling for your rental.
Mirrors are great for making a room stand out. They’re practical, fashionable and can make a small space feel larger. Best of all, they’re cost-effective accessories that come in a wide range of sizes and styles, so you’re bound to find one that brings out the best aspects of a room.
Accessories can also be used to make a property a more comfortable place to be. When you’re furnishing a holiday let with a homely touch, consider using cushions to add a deeper level of colour and texture. Throws and blankets can be used to create a cosy atmosphere and are perfect for cuddling under after a long day or if it starts to get chilly in the evening.
Finally, artwork on the walls will make a bold statement in your property. Anything that looks unique and has its own sense of style is likely to capture the attention of your guests and stay in their minds long after their stay is over. And the more memorable your property is, the more likely it is to stay in mind when it comes to booking again next year.
